Abstract
For the treatment of deep vein thrombosis (DVT), rapid diagnosis and prompt therapy are crucial to minimize the risk of fatal pulmonary embolism and long-term complications, including the postthrombotic syndrome and recurrent thromboembolism. The treatment of acute DVT remains controversial. In this review, treatment options in relation to exposing and predisposing risk factors are discussed. Evidence-based data and recommendations from official guidelines are presented.Entities:
